Details
UUG’s initial focus is on establishing and maintaining regional chapters in the key game development cities of San Francisco, Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto, with plans to branch out to other top locales soon thereafter. To kick off the Montreal chapter, UUG is hosting a premiere networking event on Monday, Nov. 16, following a Unity Skills Development Workshop led again by Mr. Helgason.
The entire initiative will be framed within a "web-ready" context, exploring how tools like Unity are enabling developers to create, market and monetize console-like browser content for a growing audience of online and mobile gamers.
Admission for the networking event is $10. This includes a free drink, eats and a chance to win a Unity License (valued at $1,500)!
dimeRocker is a soon-to-be-released branded distribution platform that will enable independent Unity game developers to deploy, monetize and grow traffic for their 3D multiplayer game content across the social web.
